I've talked to a couple coaches who have free coaching blogs and posts, and it turns out they're charging now, so is this false information that charged coaching ad's are not okay? Maybe expanding the terms of use would help this issue...the sentence on advertising is short and doesn't answer the questions this thread seems to be answering. | ||

So why then is the time that is included in every post by our names not in EST? Usually it's a day ahead of EST, suggesting it's based in EU..... Okay like 75% percent of my posts are nub questions like this I apologize, maybe I should just not ask this but i'm going to : ) | ||

That gives the time in KST which is the standard time for TL. KST of course being Korea Standard Time. We are a community that considers ourselves "foreigners" in our own countries due to Brood War, and the fact that TL runs on KST, unless you change it yourself reflects this. | ||

I saw one post here (or quote I think) that said Free coaching is okay, but not if you charge.

Maybe expanding the terms of use would help this issue...the sentence on advertising is short and doesn't answer the questions this thread seems to be answering. it depends on how much you contribute to the site, consider posting a few free help videos first or in your advertisement post as a show of good will to the community. post a lot in help threads or whatever. even then its a bit of a risk, just pm your plans to a mod first and discuss it rather than jumping head first into advertising and getting banned. im sure they would understand that its tough to pay for a sponsored thread if you havent taken any money in yet, but they would probably expect you to shell out if your coaching does pick up a bit. | ||

If the link was such a problem a mod could just simply remove the link and warn, instead the last two times I've recently posted my t-shirt designs I created they completely closed the thread and put it in the trash bin. Now the first time I could understand I had mentioned "selling" said shirt designs but it isn't like I linked to a cafepress store and encouraged people to buy them. The second time I only uploaded the designs, links to enlarged designs, and links to my off-site blog post. Because my blog, that is my property, had a link on it to the cafepress store the post on TL was shut down again for "self promotion". I don't even mention selling shirts nor encourage it. *shrug* I don't remember TL ever being this strict. First problem of censorship I've seen from TL. | ||

I think the spirit of this policy is to keep people from spamming the threads. I think (again, assumption) that one thread that is kept up to date and in which you have discussions about your event would be fine. I think the key take-away is that if 90% of your posts on TL are about your event then they would view that as taking advantage. If your one show thread is just one of many that you contribute to then I would assume you would be fine. | ||

I have a rich history in gaming.......Ever since i was 12 I have been playing PC games....... I've played every tycoon and sid meyer game, every sim city, nearly every C&C and expansion, also nearly every civilization game........ and I played abit of SC1 and BW..... and now currectly I'm in love with SC2 and excited for heart of the swarm sorry for the wall of text i just wanted to be clear I'm not fool, nor am i am stranger to RTS games and I'm glad sites like team liquid exist :D | ||
